30 days of poems – 2019 {4}
.
.
diligence and derelict
history is a faulty course
in humanity
we miss all the silence
the bone-crunching weight
of existence
the bleeding fingers of daily toil
and end up with highlights
reeled and presented
in a package wrapped in bias
much the way
we present ourselves today
in this new realm
of me-story
where you cannot believe
what you see
.

I always love all of your words in all of your poems but especially the title of this one.
